Chapter 988:
Soon, this group sat down in the conference room with the Red Robed Sect Leader sitting at the head seat, and the Prime Minister at the secondary seat. The others took their seats at the meeting table. Regarding this occasion, the Red Robed Sect Leader had a suggestion: he hoped that the Jia Government would also persuade Ye Chen along with him. Of course, persuasion was fake; attracting their attention was the real goal. As for Bragsky, he was the true target of the Red Robed Sect Leader.
The Prime Minister of Jia Government, upon learning the Church Court’s aim, immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as their troops weren’t going to a death trap, it was fine. Just cooperating with the Church Court? What did it matter? The Jia Government was wholeheartedly willing to do so. If they could seize this opportunity to get rid of the menace Ye Chen, they’d be even more pleased inside.
"Prime Minister, since you’re willing, please dispatch your Secretary of State to Sunset City and have Ye Chen bring his negotiation team here to negotiate!" The Red Robed Sect Leader chuckled.
"Yes, yes!" The Prime Minister immediately nodded.
The Congress Building soon organized relevant personnel to prepare to start negotiations with Ye Chen’s side. Sunset City - Feng Zhixiao received the message from the Prime Minister of Canada, and he was dumbfounded at that moment. Shit, they actually want to negotiate? At this time, they’re still thinking about negotiation? Feng Zhixiao hurriedly informed Ye Chen of the news.
"What? You said Canada wants to negotiate with us?" Ye Chen looked at Feng Zhixiao in astonishment.
"Yes!" Feng Zhixiao immediately nodded and said, "If you ask me, this is likely a strategy. A detour strategy!"
"What?!" Ye Chen paused, exclaiming in amazement, "What detour strategy, are you crazy? We’re in an adversarial state right now, all so-called strategies are nonsense. If you ask me, they’re here to persuade us!"
"Ah?!" Feng Zhixiao paused, astonished and said, "They wouldn’t be foolish, right? How could they persuade us?"
"Who knows? Perhaps their motives aren’t what they appear to be!" Ye Chen smiled calmly.
The next day, the Canadian government’s negotiation representatives arrived as scheduled; a team of about a hundred people grandly arrived at Sunset City, waiting outside for Ye Chen’s reception. The guards stopped this group outside. Everyone waited.
"Strange, why aren’t they letting us in?" The people under the Prime Minister’s command were curiously asking.
"Just wait patiently!" Someone nearby immediately said, "The negotiation is already set!"
"What if they suddenly reneged?" A soldier asked curiously.
"Renege? Hehe, who knows!" The guy next to him said softly, "This isn’t something we can intervene in, it’s above us and has nothing to do with us!"
At this time, over two hundred guards came out from within Sunset City, marching out grandly, each one equipped with fine weaponry, their bodies seemingly filled with a murderous aura. This scared the Canadian Prime Minister to sweat profusely, even though he was sitting in a bulletproof car, he still felt no sense of security.
"Prime Minister, what are they doing?" The driver asked urgently.
"How should I know?" The Prime Minister of Jia Government shook his head quickly and said, "We’re just here to negotiate, only brought dozens of people, clearly not looking for trouble. They wouldn’t dare go rogue!"
"Oh!" The driver nodded, understanding.
Once the Sunset City guard team was in place, they immediately began to set the scene; everyone stood firm, uniformly holding rifles aimed at the sky. A Hummer slowly drove out from the inner city, Feng Zhixiao stood on the roof of the Hummer, then shouted loudly: "Brothers, fire the guns and welcome the Prime Minister!"
"Da da da..."
Over two hundred people uniformly pulled the triggers, the machine guns went into a frenzy of shooting. After a wild shooting, the outside Jia Government’s team was disordered, soldiers hugging their heads, hiding behind the bulletproof cars, and the Prime Minister dove under the seat.
"Damn it, Prime Minister, they’re showing us who’s boss!" The driver was also terrified; if not for his mission, he would have already turned and left. Unfortunately, today’s negotiation was required by the Church Court, if not followed, they might die quickly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Prime Minister, what...do we do now?"
"What do we do? What can we do!" The Prime Minister expelled a breath of air; once the gunfire outside ceased, he sighed and said, "They’re the host now, we’re the guest. Guests follow the host’s cue!"
"Yes!" The driver gritted his teeth, suddenly feeling very humiliated, the negotiating team truly did feel quite humiliated.
Over a hundred people from the negotiating team were coerced by Feng Zhixiao and others into the inner city. On the way to the inner city, the Prime Minister witnessed various punishments, witnessing beheadings, tongue-pinching, roasting... all kinds of punishments paraded in front of him. All the citizens in Sunset City were staging a show of brutal punishment for the Prime Minister. This frightened the Prime Minister to his core.
Shit, he was scared all along the way. The Prime Minister bit his teeth, furious: "These bastards, daring to show me who’s boss, I...will certainly seek revenge later!"
The Prime Minister was indeed terrified; although he knew it was all an act, he also knew they wouldn’t dare do anything to him. However, he was still trembling, his hands and feet trembling non-stop, unable to say why.
"Prime Minister, we...should leave, I think we’re in the wrong place!" The driver next to him was highly nervous.
"No way!" The Prime Minister immediately shook his head and said: "Even if we’re in the wrong place, we must go on; even if it’s the gates of hell, we must march onward!"
"Yes, yes!" The driver nodded quickly.
Finally arriving at the inner city, Ye Chen and his guard team, Jimmy and others, were waiting for the Prime Minister. This fat man climbed out of the bulletproof car trembling, biting his teeth, face pale, constantly wiping sweat from his forehead, feeling as if he had an endless supply of sweat.
"Yo, Prime Minister, you’re finally here!" Ye Chen approached with a smile, then warmly shook his hand. The Prime Minister dared not neglect Ye Chen, hurriedly smiling and saying: "Yes, yes, Mr. Ye, we finally meet, it wasn’t easy!"
"Indeed!" Ye Chen nodded, saying: "It wasn’t easy, but why are you sweating?"
"Ah, I’m fat, so I fear the heat!" The Prime Minister hurriedly wiped the sweat constantly seeping from his forehead, standing with Ye Chen, immediately feeling Ye Chen’s sharp edge, especially seeing the powerful Seal Special Forces standing beside him. The Prime Minister felt uneasy; he wasn’t sincere in coming for negotiations.
However, he was relieved that the Clan Leader of the Chaikefu family wasn’t there; as long as he held Ye Chen and his guard team off, the assassin team dispatched by the Church Court could complete the task. Thinking of this, the Prime Minister relaxed a bit internally.
"Please!" Ye Chen laughed heartily: "Let me find some girls to cool you down!"
"Really? I quite like Chinese girls!" Speaking of girls, the fat man instantly perked up. He eagerly said: "Chinese girls are the prettiest, so tender, my favorite!"
"No, I’m going to get you Canadian girls, I won’t give you Chinese girls!" Ye Chen laughed heartily: "Your Canadian beauties are nice too, their figures like devils, features refined. Tsk tsk, I got a few yesterday, quite impressive!"
The Prime Minister of Jia felt a cold chill, thinking to himself, well damn, I’ll do anything to get Chinese women, absolutely not those from my own country. The two slowly walked toward the conference hall, each harboring hidden intentions.
Entering the conference hall, Ye Chen and the Canadian Prime Minister sat at their seats. Feng Zhixiao stood like a wooden stick nearby. The Prime Minister of Jia sat beside Ye Chen, seeming quite cordial on the surface, but each harboring their own agendas.
"Mr. Ye, the reason we came this time is to negotiate with you!" The Prime Minister of Jia smiled calmly and said: "You know, your territory is under the jurisdiction of my Canadian government, our government possesses absolute ownership of Sunset City. So..."
"Wait!" Ye Chen immediately waved his hand and said: "How can this matter be related to your ownership?"
Ye Chen was puzzled; initially, this piece of land was negotiated with the Jia Government, ownership to the Rothschild family. As for jurisdiction rights, neither side agreed upon it; Ye Chen planned to leverage this agreement to allow him to become independent without needing to negotiate with the Jia Government. But now? This guy seemed to want to use the negotiation to bring Sunset City’s ownership into discussion. Ye Chen would not allow such a thing to happen, he answered coldly: "You, don’t play tricks on me; Sunset City is land that Rothschild family already decided upon, you have already signed relevant agreements with us. Ownership naturally belongs in Rothschild’s hands!"
"But...jurisdiction is in our government’s hands!" The Prime Minister filled in quickly.
